In Like a Lion

-
Welcome to another Fantabulous Cricut blog challenge. This weeks challenge is called In Like a Lion. The challenge is simple; make a project using a any sort of cat, lion, tiger, etc on it. For my project I decided to use a lion.


This bookmark and the lion head on it, as well as the word all come from the Animal Kingdom Cricut Cartridge. I was excited for this excuse to use the cartridge, because this is one that I haven't used all that much. It is one of my first cartridges and has since been overshadowed by all the newer ones. So, I pulled it out and made a cute lion bookmark! The paper used for this bookmark was DCWV's the Animal Crackers paper stack.

I hope you enjoyed my bookmark project, now I encourage you to create your own project and link it up at Fantabulous Cricut!

    Don't you just LOVE having an excuse for using a cartridge? This is one of my first ones as well, but I've used it a few times. I love all the animal carts & can't wait to get Noah's next! Very cute bookmark, btw. Love the cute papers you chose!

War Binder

We are now into August and I have been thinking a lot about the fact that school is coming. I have been homeschooling my daughter for the past year and a half. She is now going to go to a Christian school in the fall for junior high. I can't believe that she is in 7th grade already! I am both sad for me and excited for her. One of my favorite things about homeschooling, besides having my daughter home with me everyday, was using my Happy Planner for lesson planning. I love my lists and seeing my week planned out on paper. So, I was thinking through how to make a good use of my Happy Planner this coming year. I a blog post on how to set up a  War Binder .

Let's Scrap - Friends Forever

Since moving away from my home town I don't get to see my old high school/college friends very often. There was a core group of us that hung out beginning in high school and we are all friends still. The one friend that was responsible for all of us meeting and ultimately becoming friends was getting married. It was so fun to all be back together for an evening. What was also fun was seeing all of our children together. Definitely one of those sentimental moments that needs to be scrapbooked and kept for all time! Let's Scrap has a fantastic sketch up on the blog that was perfect for these pictures. This sketch included a fun element: booklet. At first I had some trouble figuring out how to do this but then it became clear. I hope you enjoy the layout and the booklet as pictured for you below. I decided to use the left side of the layout. And I hope you are inspired to try this fun element on your next layout! The Sketch: My Take (on the left side of the...
